Support from an unexpected quarter - after the barbs from Chetan Bhagat and MJ Akbar - An Ambassador's Plea to the Govt on OROP

Indian Military Veterans


20 September 2015

Dear Prime Minister of India, 

All the governments of world have accepted their veterans a "Class of Probity" but it is totally reverse in India.
 
I am regularly watching and reading about long ongoing agitation of Indian veterans demanding One Rank-One Pension (OROP) for the last three months.

Shockingly, the government of India never planned to keep its promises till to date. 
I urge the government of India and its parliamentarians to have a look with opened eyes on the lines....Engraved on the walls of Indian Military Academy, Dehra Dun :

"The safety, honour & welfare of your country come first, always and every time. 

The honour, welfare and comfort of the men you command come next. 
Your own ease, comfort and safety come last, always and every time." 

Quite a contrast with the ways of the world outside! 

For a life of extraordinary hardship, in Battle and in peace, all 25 million veterans of India deserve one rank one pension. 

There's honour in service of these men but no honour in the broken promises made to them.

I being an Ambassador at Large of International Human Rights Commission for India & SAARC would like to request you to accept all the genuine demand of your veterans and remember that you can never pay back a soldier enough.
 
Better give it gracefully! 

Don't try bargaining with veterans...They are upright and honest people of great India; They talk straight and prefer same thing in return. 

So, for a change in the portfolios of armed forces personnel with the civilian counterparts on 'as is at it' basis for couple of years

And let civilian brethren enjoy all the amenities, facilities including bullets on the chest during enemy aggression, natural calamities, internal disturbances and all other nuisances the nation has to face for its safety , honor, dignity and unity etc and let them do it without urging for OROP for themselves at any stage to keep your nation fighting fit and well dignified in world arena.
